Hi

I'm trying to run a print server as a DomU with a USB printer but can't get it 
attached. Any tips? 

My DomO details:
Linux server 2.6.18-xen-3.1-2-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Jun 16 19:01:59 CEST 2008 x86_64 
GNU/Linux
                                                                          
I've altered my config file for the domu to include the lsusb vendor:id as 
follows:
usb=1
usbdevice=[ 'host:04f9:0027' ]

But the device is not found (no output from lsusb or ls -a /proc/bus/usb/ and 
the CUPS server can't find it either). I've tried instructions under [1] . How 
can I attach it?

Thanks for your help!

M
